Aus der Flasche (bbe 31.12.2027) im 2023-03 getrunken. Diese sehr feinperlige Bock hat eine kurzweilgie Schaumkrone. Die Aromen sind aber sehr verschlossenen und es ist eher eine Karamellnote mit einer bananenartige Süße wie bei einem Hefeweizen zu entdecken. Nicht schlecht!

Bottle from craft beer shop, drunk after analyzing the costs of construction post-Covid & with Crazy Putin. Hint: it's not ideal. I hope the beer will make things better. Dark brown, moderate tan head. Toasty and somewhat dry nose, on the tongue it tastes a lot caramel-sweeter, but less sugar and body than one would expect for a nine percenter. Dry roasted coffee notes, pretty big (but not super smooth) bitterness, maybe dark/black malt astringency. Interesting one.

33cl bottle. A dark orange brown beer with a beige lacing. Aroma of strong dark brown malt, raisins. Taste of raisins, caramel, dark fruits, ripe fruits.

Würzig malziger Beginn, süßlich hefig, trockener Hintergrund. Ansteigend kräutrig, etwas Alkohol, rund. Unterdurchschnittlich karbonisiert, spritzig, schokoadiger Malzabgang. Gefällt. 10/9/11/10/10/10

Bottle picked up from Craft Beer webshop, Parchim, Germany and had this at home Saturday 28th January 2023, drinking along with the live Senatsbock tasting again, we had a Chicken Tikka Masala Curry with homemade Onion Bhajis and homemade Garlic and Chilli Nan breads and Raita. Pours a dirty chestnut brown, a little bit boozy, some vanilla, chocolate and a tastes like it's maybe barrel aged with something like a Rum barrel, it probably isn't but certainly tastes like it might be. Tbf there is a fair bit going on here, not completely blowing me away but it's certainly a amongst the front runners though still some distance behind Wildwuchs.
